They cherry pick some data and call it “evidence”.

They call it proof, and say there's a consensus. Cherry picking was exactly what the climategate scandal with the IPCC was all about. They deleted data they didn't like, and kept what they did. It's also what the mainstream media does with the news. But a half truth is still a lie.

In 1989 Sagan wrote an article for Parade Magazine about The Life issue. After presenting what amounted to political arguments he came to the “scientific” conclusion that abortion was acceptable. Parade Magazine reported that the article created the biggest response in their history. Ninety nine percent of the letters were against his reasoning and conclusion. So much for Carl Sagan.

Re: Evidence
I was echoing yesterday’s ERF day meme.

Repeated by many speakers at DC.

“We are scientists, we all should believe in science, it will cure all the problems, and we have evidence.”

Then I note the article about the comet that hit the earth. We found diamonds therefore comet dust cooled the earth. No you were wrong, you found graphine and a glacial lake flowed into the oceans and messed up all the warm currents. No, we really did find diamonds, you are misstating things.

This is a consensus?
